If you were a contestant on *Wheel of Fortune* and made a huge mistake, would you laugh it off or hide in embarrassment? For Matt, a contestant who made one of the most memorable blunders in the show\u2019s history, the choice was probably to laugh.<\/p>\n
Despite his error, he won \\$23,350 in the end. During his round, Matt had to guess a word puzzle in the category \u201cpeople.\u201d<\/p>\n
The puzzle read: N\\_ T \u2013 \\_ N \\_ R \\_ T \\_ \\_ N TH\\_. When Matt guessed \u201cThe Greatest Buttercut,\u201d he was completely off, and the correct answer was \u201cThe Next Generation.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
His blunder provided a lot of laughs, overshadowing the entire episode despite his win. Matt isn\u2019t the only contestant to make a memorable mistake.<\/p>\n
In 2017, Kevin confused the title \u201cA STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE,\u201d calling it \u201cA STREETCAR NAKED DESIRE.\u201d In 2009, Lolita McAuley guessed \u201cSELF-POTATO\u201d instead of \u201cSELF-PORTRAIT.\u201d And in 2014, Julian mispronounced \u201cAchilles\u201d as \u201cAY-chill-es\u201d and made some odd guesses, like \u201con-the-spot dicespin.\u201d These hilarious errors have become part of *Wheel of Fortune* history, reminding us that sometimes, laughter is the best way to handle a mistake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
